The 'Really? Right In Front Of My X?' meme (most famously 'Right in front of my salad?') stems from a 2017 promotional clip for a Men.com adult film. In the scene, a character played by Nikki V. expresses genuine indignation toward two men having sex directly in her line of sight while she eats. Her specific choice of words and her focus on the salad rather than the act itself struck a chord with internet users for its sheer absurdity. The meme evolved into a versatile reaction template where the word 'salad' is swapped out for whatever the user happens to be doing or holding at the time. It serves as a humorous way to call out inappropriate behavior, lack of decorum, or simply to express mock offense in a variety of social media contexts.
